Chapter 744: Chapter 748: Don’t Mention That Cheap Goods!
“Are you doing this on purpose? What have you found out?” Fang Lutong seemed to have thought of something, his face distorted with rage, his belt repeatedly lashing down on Fang Yao.
Fang Yao’s leg was already injured, kneeling on the cold ground as if a venomous insect was feasting on his nerves, causing unbearable pain.
He couldn’t keep kneeling so he had to prop himself up with both hands on the ground.
The belt kept tearing into the skin on his back, yet he didn’t utter a single grunt of pain.
He was utterly at a loss.
He didn’t understand why this was happening.
Before he turned twelve, even though his father was somewhat cold towards him, his mother was very affectionate.
However, on his twelfth birthday, when he returned home from school, everything changed.
His once endearing mother had him suspended from a tree and almost beat him to death.
The look in his mother’s eyes was not one of a mother looking at her son, but rather like someone facing a sworn enemy.
Latter, he found out, he was not his mother’s child, he was his father’s illegitimate son.
He was the product of his father’s affair with another woman.
His grandfather didn’t want the Fang family’s bloodline to be lost, so he made his father bring him back, falsely claiming to his mother that he was the child of his grandfather’s good friend.
His mother believed it to be true and adopted him with his father.
On his twelfth birthday, his mother inadvertently discovered the truth.
She discovered that the son she had raised with all her love wasn’t the grandson of her father-in-law’s good friend but her husband’s son from an affair.
From that day on, she viewed him as a thorn in her side, beating him within an inch of his life time and again.
He didn’t blame his mother.
He didn’t blame her at all.
Any woman who was deceived by her own father-in-law and husband to raise an illegitimate child as her own, would collapse when discovering the truth.
He had no reason to hate his mother.
Whenever his mother beat him to the verge of death, he would just stand coldly by.
If it weren’t for his grandfather rescuing him in time, he would have died at the hands of this couple.
He didn’t understand, he was the illegitimate child, his mother had a reason to hate him, but why did his father also dislike him?
If he didn’t like him, why did he bring him back to raise him?
The pain in his heart surpassed the pain of the belt tearing into his back by a thousand times, a million times.
He didn’t beg for mercy nor did he struggle.
He invited the beatings.
This would be the last time.
He was whipped until his flesh was torn open, and the blood flowed freely.
Peel off his skin, strip out his bones, so that he could start anew.
He would pay back everything he owed to the Fang family.
Afterward, he would have nothing to do with the Fang family ever again.
Seeing that Fang Yao didn’t make a sound, Fang Lutong’s anger intensified. The swinging belt accompanied by a ferocious wind sound, lashed down on Fang Yao’s back, time and again.
Fang Yao’s injured leg finally gave out, and he collapsed on the ground.
He lay on the ground, looking up at Fang Lutong’s livid face, weakly asking, “Dad, can you tell me, how did my mother die? What was her name? Where was her home? What kind of person was she?”
“Don’t you dare mention that slut!” Fang Lutong fiercely stomped on his face, grinding his heel on it, “Tell me, why did you bring Mi Sheng back? What exactly do you know?”
His cold, hard shoe stomped on Fang Yao’s belt-lashed wound, causing Fang Yao to convulse in pain.
He curled himself up into a ball, suddenly starting to laugh.
He laughed and laughed, and large tears slid down from his eyes.
He closed his eyes and spoke softly, “Dad, since you hate me so much, why did you bring me back in the first place? Wouldn’t it be better to just throw me in the trash and let me drown?”
